Leo in conversation with Sophie Pierce

Six years ago, Sophie Pierce’s 20 year old son, Felix, died suddenly whilst at university. No warning. No indication. The death was recorded as SUDEP, sudden unexpected death in epilepsy. Sophie, who had been due to meet her son the day they found him, is learning to live with her unimaginable loss. Part of that healing process is the writing and publication of her new book, The Green Hill - letters to a son. In her conversation with me for this podcast, she also explains how the ritual of her Catholic faith helped her through the worst of times. Her book can be pre-ordered on the link below. https://unbound.com/books/thegreenhill/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=transactional&utm_campaign=project_mailer%3Apledge_confirm_being_funded [https://unbound.com/books/thegreenhill/?utm_medium=email&utm_source=transactional&utm_campaign=project_mailer%3Apledge_confirm_being_funded]

Leo Speaks to journalist Mark Dowd

My latest podcast guest is the journalist Mark Dowd. Born in Salford in 1963, he was raised as a Roman Catholic and attended De La Salle College in Pendleton. He later obtained degrees from both Exeter and Oxford University, before exploring his vocation to the priesthood with the Dominican Order. After realising that the life of a friar was not for him, he found his way to journalism at The Times newspaper. From there, he moved to television, working on network programmes such as Weekend World, Newsnight and Panorama. Since leaving the BBC in 2001, he’s specialised in presenting prime time television documentaries on religion themes, such as the award-winning “Children of Abraham”, a three part series for Channel 4. He’s also an author. His latest book is “My Tsunami Journey: The Quest for God in a Broken World”. In a remarkable and honest interview, Mark talks about his life, his sexuality, his career, and his abiding faith.
